Abandoned Pools of East Mesa Lyrics

We're smiling at the abyss

And finding chemical bliss

With all the chaos that we've orchestrated

And all the feelings that we've sublimated

You've got a heart like a maze

You're into Tom Waits these days

Cheap suit and ragged fingernails

Finding devils in the smallest details

Light's out

We know

All the stars are dead, we're the afterglow

Like speakers

Now blown

Our songs belong to the Great Unknown

Tell me

Is there an answer in that bottle of whiskey?

Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo

Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo

We march like lambs into the slaughter

The times get hard so the drugs get harder

Drunk on the merry-go-round

White horses throwing us down

New sacred words, new blood on our faces

But you're the one who stumbles back to the races

Light's out

We know

All the stars are dead, we're the afterglow

Like speakers

Now blown

Our songs belong to the Great Unknown

Tell me

Is there an answer in that bottle of whiskey?

Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo

Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo

We march like lambs into the slaughter

The times get hard so the drugs get harder
